  The Delhi High Court has directed that hospitals cannot hold patients "hostage" over unpaid bills and dues. Denouncing the way of withholding custody of patients, a bench of Justices said that, "If the bills are not paid, then the patient can be released and cannot be kept as a hostage. Furthermore, even if dues are outstanding, the patients cannot be withheld to extract money towards unpaid bills".

Increasing awareness, hostile attitude of society, availability of legal hammer and declining camaraderie among medical practitioners are few visible obstacles raising its bar everyday. What can be done in these unfair and suffocating circumstances usually beyond our control? There can be innumerable ideas on this issue but these are not well comprehended, collated or adopted by many of us. Either we sit back and take the nonsense or we innovate, think out of the box and survive! Many unfortunately think that actually nothing can be done to redeem the situation!
